Alsipercha

A personal protection safety system designed to prevent falls from height during the decking for horizontal formwork operation. This lightweight overhead anchor device is a superb loading system and provides complete personal safety for individuals when mounting decking panels, edge protection, slab edges and stop-ends.

Easy to use and fast to install, the Alsipercha provides the worker with a 360˚ freedom of movement, allowing the worker to cover an area of 125 m2 and move within a radius of 6.5 m around the column.

With the safety of the operator paramount, the Alsipercha utilises a retractable inertia block which uses the seat belt principle to arrest a fall. The shock absorber absorbs the shock in the event of a fall, putting less stress on the concrete column and on the harnessed operator minimising the risk of injury. This safety feature can only be found on the Alsipercha.

For productivity, the system folds in seconds, is reusable, portable, versatile and systemised.

Offering great value and versatility, the Alsipercha system can be used for safe loading and unloading of vehicles on site or in yards, utilising a tripod configuration for protection on smaller trucks.

Also designed for use in railway maintenance, the Alsipercha is ideal for working safely in a group on a truck.
